Telehandler & Telescopic Handler Suppliers in Hobart

These days, forklifts come in a mesmerising array of shapes and sizes to fulfil an equally vast array of commercial and industrial functions.

There are compact, electric forklifts for smaller operations and narrow aisles. There are larger diesel/petrol forklifts or LPG forklifts for moving heavy loads in and around warehouses and factories and stacking pallets three storeys high. There are even walkie straddle stackers capable of stacking pallets nearly 5 metres high without the need for a forklift license.

Then there are telehandlers. Telehandlers come from the rough terrain family of forklifts and feature an extendable crane-like arm. Designed for heavy-duty lifting, moving and stacking where surfaces underfoot are anything but smooth and flat. They are capable of working on and over the roughest surfaces – rocks, sand, construction debris, undulating muddy fields – and in the most extreme weather conditions. Telehandlers can stack gods up to 15 metres high.
